Ace unveils California warehouse plans

Ace Hardware announced it will open a new retail support centre in Visalia, Calif. The new facility will occupy more than one million square feet and will bring an estimated 400 jobs to the region. It will augment the company’s Rocklin, Calif., and Prescott Valley, Ariz., distribution centres. Its central location lies between Sacramento and Los Angeles. Construction is scheduled to begin later this year, with the warehouse slated to be fully operational in early 2023.
